U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detained a Michigan doctor last week who has been living in the U.S. for nearly forty years, according to Grand Rapids's NBC affiliate WOOD-TV.
Lukasz Niec, who came to the U.S. from Poland when he was five years old with his sister and parents, is being held at Calhoun County jail, according to the report.

Until this gets heard, which could be up to six months, he could be stuck in a prison cell and not helping and being with his family,” Iwona Niec-Villaire said.
The news outlet reported Niec was convicted when he was 17 on one charge of destruction of property less than $100 and receiving and concealing stolen goods.
Niec reportedly pled guilty to the charges under the Holmes Youthful Trainee Act, which helps young first-time offenders keep charges off of a criminal record, but ICE does not honor the state plea agreement.

This guy would have been a DREAMer except he already has his green card. Unless there's more to the story than is being reported, ICE is out of control.
